Following PS4 Debugger 4.05, today Kiwidog made available an open source Oni Framework PlayStation 4 debugger for developers working on PS4 homebrew development.

For those curious he notes on Twitter, to quote: "Oni framework isn't specific to anything, It's just basic c code that can be ported to anything (I use it on my headless Pi's)."

Here's more from @KIWIDOGGIE in the README.md, to quote: Oni-Framework

Oni framework is a platform for embedded device software development. It is used in order to remotely debug/add functionality to an embedded device. As of right now, the main concepts are a fully modular plugin system, with local and remote rpc. This was designed to run at ring-0 privilege level, but with some tweaks can also be used in ring-3 levels. Be warned, this is NOT for production use, only for developers who want an easy building platform for research.

• Currently this project is in development, and may not be fully tested
• Will need decent knowledge of C/C#
• Magic

New Features!

Currently supported features

• Fully robust local and remote RPC system
• All used functions are stubbed out in order to ease porting to different platforms
• File transfer utility
• Color logging system (works over UART with PUTTY)

Features that are planned:

• Debugging framework
• Remote package management and install
• Communication between devices
• Hot-swappable loading and unloading of plugin modules
• Self-escalating from ring-3 to ring-0 (BYO-EntryPoint)

Building and Installation

Oni-Framework just requires that you check out this directory and implement the oni/utils/kdlsym/default.h file with all of the implementations that are required. After this, it should compile just fine with gcc or clang and produce an executable file. You will need to BYO-execution method, but for most embedded devices this can be accomplished via a ssh shell, or a shell over telnet, or any shell for...
